Arts

So with the arts ... as in every aspect of life, truth is central, the thing with which everything else must be in accord.

Frank E. Gaebelein

The arts program adds breadth to an Oaks Christian education. It not only pushes students to dramatically improve their talents, but it also provides knowledge and experience. Visual and performing art courses offer students the opportunity to explore and discover the creative gifts which God has given them, and to share these gifts in significant ways. The combination of expert teaching, student-centered learning, great facilities and a desire to redeem the arts for Christ, makes Oaks a wonderful place for students to experience the joy of art-making and to grow richly in their creative endeavors.
